A New Story

Intermittent period:

Sometime days later after overcoming the loss of my Aunt and Uncle, I found a book describing the properties and purposes of the five elements. I spent my time alone studying it, feeling myself slipping into isolation; I didn't want to be around anyone. These elements were the foundation of all ninjutsu. The Five great nations took their names from the five natures of Chakra. Fire, Wind, Lightning, Earth, Water. They are the foundation for everything we learn as Shinobi.

Everyone has an affinity for two chakra natures, I didn't know my own yet and I didn't except to discover them anytime soon, so I left that part out. They explained a complicated comprehension of Yin and Yang chakra; I didn't quite understand it so I left that part out too. What I did learn was that jutsu was executed using these different elements of chakra.

The understanding where all these elements came from was written out in a story.

It was thought that Long ago, before anything was in existence. The Kami created all and everything using these five Elements; Fire, Wind, Lightning, Earth, Water, but there was a 6th element the Kami used to create life, Spirit. Using the power of Spirit the Kami created man, the Kami created nature and the Kami created all that is life around us. The Kami Loved all that was created and said, "It is good" then the Kami blessed them all with the power to create, giving each of them a share of the elements of power. For a long time there was peace and power within every living thing, nothing that was ever needed could not be had and nothing was ever wanted that could make another sad, but soon the Kami became tired and fell into rest. The Kami's sleep was so deep that the living things of Creation began to worry that the Kami would never wake to rule again.

They disputed among one another for who should rule over what the Kami created. Soon the Dispute broke out into fighting and that fighting into war. The Battle's drew on for eons and with the power of Spirit the Creatures of Creation began to destroy the Peace the Kami created. They created life for the purpose of demise and the blood flowed for many ages to pass before the Kami awoke from his deep rest.

When the Kami awoke to the sound of battle and bloodshed, he gave a loud Roar that could be heard through all of existence. The Creatures of Creation all hid in fear of the things they had done, they Hid from the Kami fearing what punishment the Kami would condemn them too. Now awake the Kami spoke aloud to all of Creation "Why are you hiding" the Kami asked. The Creatures Of Creation did not answer so the Kami spoke again "I have seen what you have done to all that I have created. Come out from where you are hiding and your punishment will not be ruin" The Creatures of Creation all came out from hiding and said, "We heard you roar and were afraid so we hid"

The Kami looked at all he had created, at all of the Creatures Of Creation as they now were and he asked, "What have you done to yourselves?" The Creatures Of Creation looked at each other with guilt and shame, answering "We were afraid you would never awaken so we battled each other for who should rule in your absence" The Kami was not happy to hear this and in a loud roar of distaste the Kami said, "I must punish you for what you have done, for you have defiled yourselves with conflict and argument has become your nature"
